PJs For The Cure *GIVEAWAY*

Did you know that November is National Diabetes Awareness Month? What about the fact that each year, more than 15,000 children are diagnosed with juvenile diabetes? That's a pretty scary statistic, especially if you're the parent of one of those children. My family has been impacted by diabetes greatly, although the adult onset variety. But my best friend in junior high school had juvenile diabetes and I remember watching her give herself insulin shots all the time and she had to be so careful about what she ate.

Tomorrow, November 14th, is recognized as World Diabetes Day. Do you understand what diabetes is? Diabetes "prevents a person's pancreas from producing insulin, a hormone that enables your body to get energy from food. Difficult to manage, Diabetes requires constant monitoring and influences many aspects of daily life." That doesn't sound like much fun, does it? Wouldn't you like to do something to help find a cure?

Sleepwear manufacturer, Komar, wants to make it fun to raise money for the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (JDRF). How are they doing this? With their non-profit foundation PJs For The Cure. When you purchase pajamas through this foundation 100% of the profits go to benefit JDRF. They make both women's and children's styles and these pajamas make perfect holiday gifts this chilly winter season. Komar has a BIG goal to donate $1 million to JDRF so every sale helps!

PJs For The Cure has a Facebook page. I encourage you to check it out and "like" it if you actually like it. Just click on the image below to visit:



You can check out all the adorable pajama styles at PJs For The Cure. While you're there figure out what pair you like best because one lucky Red Sox Mommy reader will win a pair of pajamas of their choice!!!

To enter just leave a comment on this post telling me your favorite things to do in your pajamas.


If you'd like more chances to win you can do the following after doing the above requirement:

- Tweet about this giveaway, you can do this once per day, just leave a comment with the link to your tweet each time (1 entry each time). Include @RedSoxMommy and #giveaway in your tweets please.

Disclaimer: You must have a US mailing address. You must leave a valid email address so I can contact you if you win. I will not use the addresses for any other purpose. You must follow the first entry requirement before any extra entries will be counted as valid. No "count me in" style comments will be qualified to win, please follow the directions. You have until November 25, 2010 at 11:59pm MT to enter. I will choose the winner at random soon after that time and s/he will have 72 hours to respond to the winning notification or a new winner will be chosen by the same method. I will be giving the winner's address to the sponsor so they can mail out the prize.

Good luck!



I wrote this review while participating in a blog tour by Mom Central Consulting on behalf of Komar and PJs For The Cure and received a gift card to thank me for taking the time to participate. They also provided me with information for this post (quotes in post come from their information) and will be providing the PJs for the giveaway winner.
